Blue Sky Physical Therapy – Appointment

Jackie’s unique experience as a dancer, a Pilates instructor and a physical therapist allow her to identify and treat impairments and injuries specific to dancers and performers. Jackie’s multifaceted approach includes assessment of impaired dance-related function, capacity, and technique from a biopsychosocial perspective. Treatment often includes manual therapy to restore normal controlled movement through the dancer’s range of movement, specific exercise prescription and progression based on technique analysis to correct faulty movement patterns that may be contributing to pain or poor performance, and education and guidance to build healthy habits to ensure longevity in a dancer’s career. Pilates equipment is often incorporated in treatment to progress towards dance rehab goals. Overall, Jackie’s primary goal is to ensure dancers of all ages gain understanding and autonomy of their rehab and their ongoing exercise maintenance plan in order to sustain healthy moving habits for life.
